Is the 'Going Rate' Going Up?

Farmers and agricultural service providers across Missouri are invited to participate in University of Missouri Extension’s Custom Rates Survey.

This triennial survey helps shed light on the costs associated with custom farming operations such as tillage, planting, spraying, harvesting, land management work and machinery rental, offering valuable insights for both those who hire services and those who provide them, said survey coordinator Drew Kientzy, an MU Extension research analyst.

“Whether you’re a farmer trying to budget for next season or a service provider looking to stay competitive, the information from the custom rates survey helps bring transparency to the marketplace,” Kientzy said. “The more responses we receive, the more useful the results will be for farmers, custom applicators, earthmoving contractors and many others.”
